This will prevent men from joining organiza- tions through treacherous motives and then, when discovered, from joining others.

OPIUM SMUGGLING.
Queer Conclusion Of a Case at
San Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 22-The case
of the United States VS.. Alfred RhOdus,
who was charged with cOncealing and
smuggling opium, and who is believed
to be connected with large band Of
smuggIers, was before United States
Commissioner Sawyer to-day. The de-
fendant called a Chinaman, named 10
Sing, who testified that he was a citizen
of the United States, having been
natnraliZed in Cincinnati; that he sold
the 291 boxes alleged to contain opium
to friend of Mr.. RhoduS for 50 cents
each; that each box contained New Or
leans molasses; that the boxes con-
tanned no more opium than that which
adhered to the sides of the boxes from
which opium had been taken; that the
contents of the boxes were an antidOte
for opium smoking. The witness eX-
hibited a number of labels similar in all
respects to those upon the seized boxes,
and said they were printed in San
Francisco. Commissioner Sawyer said
that. in the absence of evidence show
ing that the boxes contained opium
clandcstinely imported, he would have
to discharge the accused, which he did.
After the dismissal of the case Rhodus
called at a newspaper Office and said he
was engaged with lot of rich SNUG
glerS who had tried, by cOnspiring
against him in this case, to get him out
of the way. He added that unless he
got what he wanted from them he
would divulge what he knew of their
transactions and send number of them

TELEGRAPH LITIGATION
Involving the Old Bankers &
Merchants Lines.

McfCnanUS' E1EcS.
New YORK, July 22.-Judge Barrett
to-day rendered decision in the case of
Townsend, Cox & Co. against Edward S.
Stokes, the United Lines Telegraph
company, Dwight Townsend, John An
dersOn, George Turnbull, Edward Sal
lenger and the Farmers Loan & Trust
company. The suit grew out of the pur-
chase of the Bankers & Merchants Tel
egraph company by Mr.. Stokes about
two years ago. The plaintiffs claim that
at the time of the sale they held
$731. 600 worth Of the general mortgage
bonds of the company. They only as
Sented to the sale on the understanding
that the sale was for the protection of
the bOndt OlderS' interests. They assert
that the reorganization committee of the
bOndholders afterwards agreed with
Mr.. Stokes to allow the United Lines
company to become the pOSSeSSOr of
81, 900, 600 worth of the securities Of the
Bankers d Merchants company. In
consequence they asked the court to de-
eide that Ar. Stokes bought the Bank
erS " Merchants company for the
benefit of the bOndholderS and
not for his personal benefit; that
Mr.. Stokes be required to
account for his administration as trustee
of the reorganization committee of the
bOndhoIders; that receiver be APP
pointed and that the Farmers Loan
and Trust company be enjOined from
dispOsing of the Bankers IL Merchants
securities in its possession. Judge Bar
rett denied the application for re-
ceiver, because it is unnecessary, but
says that Mr.. Stokes unquestionably
represented the reorganization commit
tee i'll the purchase of the Bankers IG
Merchants Telegraph company. Judge
Barrett grants an Injunction pending
the suit against the securities in posses
sion of the Trust company.
